Who Am I?

I’m Bibek Bhandari, a Computer Science & Engineering (Cybersecurity) undergraduate at SRM University AP. I focus on defensive security, vulnerability patching, and system protection. My research interest are LLM/AI system security, implementing safeguards against data leaks, prompt injection, adversarial attacks, and unauthorized access.
I am particularly passionate about Docker security, cloud security, network segmentation, and WAF configuration
I also enjoy penetration testing, VAPT, and SIEM deployment, combining technical expertise with practical defensive strategies.
Beyond my screens and servers I cary the same curiosity and discipline into life.
